provide emotional maturity and are always connected with improving learning strategies, no gambler is always successful and must always anticipate conditions. As an adult I always put more emphasis on family responsibilities, this is what always keeps me balanced when I am at a disadvantage in gambling.

Actually, we can learn much as a gambler, but sometimes we didn't realize that because we are too busy with the games. Some of us will say that they learn about how to play gambling with smooth, but the fact is when they got lost, they lose the power to control themselves, and soon or later, they become addicted to gambling. If they can realize the lesson from gambling, I am sure that they will not have trouble in gambling.

The truth is that many in gambling are learning their own lessons the hard way, some the hardest like those who really lost everything in gambling. I hope we don't have to lose our properties and families in order to start learning our lessons. Gambling is a vice whether we like it or not and we need to limit it to the minimum. That is my lesson from gambling. Controlling it is a necessity.

Losing our money or our properties will be okay, but losing our family is a big no for us. We can't lose the family because they're mean everything to us, and we can do whatever to get our family fine. The big lesson that we should get from gambling is controlling ourselves, and we must try not to lose too much money in gambling. When someone can control themselves in gambling, he will have a chance to stop the game at any time.

Losing your gambling money may be okay but not the properties. If one's gambling vice has come to a point that properties are sold just to support it, I guess that is already crossing the line and the gambler has to urgently seek a professional intervention to stop it and avoid it getting worse. If that happens, what follows is more devastating. Your properties are next to your family. Selling your house or lot or even your car and home appliances is already a sign of gambling addiction.

But if you lose so much money, that will not be okay because that means you risk your money in a large amount. Losing the property will be very bad to get because your property is like a machine to make money, and if you lose that property, that means you can not make money too. Once that happens, the next thing that you will lose is your family. You must learn many things about gambling from those examples so you can be careful when you play gambling and don't spend too much money.

Beside learning the game itself & strategy related to it, I also learnt the value of money & started spending it judiciously. Losses in gambling taught me how to save and limit of expenses, especially during the hard times when I had very lil money to get a blind to play. 
It's a great lesson that everyone will eventually learn. You will start to value your money when you have earned that very hard and you have nothing left when you allowed to lose all that you've got. Lesson like this comes from the hardest times that a gambler will face, we start to appreciate things like money when it's not anymore on us. So while it's on your side and you're in the turn of being lucky, don't waste it and spend it wisely and gamble responsively.

You probably heard the negative sides of gambling, some people who dont gamble has this bad impression towards it and we cant blame them for thinking that way because of the bad affect of gambling to a person who dont have control and let himself became addicted.

Now what did you realize or learn as a gambler (regardless if you became an addicted or not) that you can share to others?

As a former addicted gambler I realized that gambling is not the answer if you're desperate to grow your money and should not be our last resort in times like this because there's other way that can be the solution to our problem when it comes to money.

This is something you are going to value all of your life if you have learned this lesson from gambling i.e. being thrifty in regards of spending money. This is really something tough for young people to do. Controlling your desires give you massive success and advantages in practical life. What I believe is that you are not and addict since you never borrowed money for gambling and used whatever you had.

The fun factor could work more on skill-based gambling, especially if the gambler is willing to learn the game. I don't see it working on luck-based gambling unless maybe "luck" is on the side of the gambler. Fun factor removes fear & enables concentration. But concentrating on luck-based game wouldn't improve the game, (i guess) because it's based on probability.

Absolutely. But another thing that I've learned from gambling is that even in skill-based games luck is still a too big factor to be ignored. That's why even if you are very good at playing poker, for example, and you are in a very good mood, and concentrated and all, you shouldn't go for huge bets anyway. You can lose Aces full of Queens to Quads(happened to me the other day) because of bad luck, and however good you are, you can't fold Aces full of Queens, ever.

The only problem that I see here when someone is gambling is that they gamble to double their money or profit hunting through gambling. Which in fact is the main reason why most of these gamblers became addicted because they always chase their losses. Gambling is a good way to become as a source of income. Gambling is designed for entertainment purposes only and when it comes to entertainment it comes with a price.
I agree, most people wanted to double their money when they play gambling but we all know that gambling is base on luck most of the time so we are not sure on that part that we can actually double our money. Not all people becoming successful and getting their goal through gambling butas long as we all know out limitations then its okay to gamble.

Apart from being a good entertainment that helps me to relax after a busy day and to regain my strength so that I could do my job, gambling has helped me to understand probability better. I may be wrong, but I think that the better you understand probability, the easier to come up with a right decision in your everyday life.
Those who do not gamble only for money are the ones who have learned amazing and healthy habits from gambling. Gambling has undoubtedly effects on gamblers patience; it makes them take correct decisions under pressure without losing mind and calmness. Gambling trains them for such situations of practical life where you have to take decisions within seconds and that too crucial one.

Another thing I learned as a gambler: never loan somebody with a gambling addiction any money, unless you never want to receive it back.

Odds are high that they'll gamble with your money, lose it, then be further in the hole than they started. They'll often use a variety of excuses or tricks to get you to provide the loan, but you need to resist since a desperate man will say anything.

1. Understand the game before playing it.
2. Don't wager more than you can afford to lose.
3. Know when to quit.
4. Don't chase losses.
We have so many things we learn from gambling. Above you mentioned is very right, we should learn the consequences before playing. When you chase losses the big lose you will get so just play that you can afford to lose. Others become addicted into gambling because of aiming to win big, no self control and being greedy. So many things learn from gambling and let’s serve these as a lesson.
Trying to recover amount that you already lose is a big no inside this industry, you will keep losing since you are aggressive and you do rushing
to in back those losses that you've got. Learning how to be patient and enjoy whatever the outcome might brings to your game is better instead
of engaging to much since your goals is to win or to recover everything.

not a big no because many are still doing it .  some failed and some succeed and they earn a little more just by chasing thier losses   .  

its not bad to chase losses and its not against the rules of every gambling site  but its only up to you if what you believe   .  chasing losses does not mean that you are an unprofesional gambler but what if its your first time to loose big  ? and most of the time you manage to win   .  would be a good idea to try to recover what you lost at least sometime   ?

Yes this is what I am talking about. It is not only for us to have money or to make it as a source of income but rather it coule be our source of fun. If you are having fun in gambling I think it more likely you will win your game, and also you may accept every lose fairly because you are enjoying it. It teaches me to enjoy little things and little earnings.

I agree with you, except for the part about the probability of winning your game. What gambling has taught me is that the chance of winning doesn't depend on my mood. I can lose when having fun, and I can win when I'm bored and frustrated. What you shouldn't do when feeling bad is depositing again after losing your balance. That's for sure. But playing with your balance, which you can afford to lose, is okay. And even a small win can brighten your day. Yeah, enjoying little things and little earnings. You said it right, mate.

As a former addicted gambler I realized that gambling is not the answer if you're desperate to grow your money and should not be our last resort in times like this because there's other way that can be the solution to our problem when it comes to money.

What I have learnt from my gambling experience is that the more you gamble the more you will lose.
If you want to try your luck it is the best to do it only once. And the thing that everybody is aware of "Do not gamble money that you cannot afford".
There is nothing bad in gambling more but it shall be paired with great control over emotions and especially greed. Greed makes thing worse when you are gambling often. When you win some good money, definitely you get inclined towards big bets which are offering great money. I like gambling when I am playing with the money from my savings not with the money that I have borrowed from someone.

Gambling is all about skills and knowledge on how to play and win the game. A gambler who has a lot of experience in playing can win their game easily because they have a lot of techniques that they already adopt on their previous plays. Still, not all the time a professional gambler wins the game because honestly, there are a lot of good traders that can beat us even we have a lot of knowledge in gambling. If we lose a game, this is not the end and makes a better of you. A gambler who loses a lot of games getting more excitement on his self because we want to make a comeback and revenge that desire makes us more want to play gambling games.
